What Your Death Certificate Says About You May Be Wrong: A Narrative Review on CDC's Efforts to Quantify Prescription Opioid Overdose Deaths - PubMed pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34667687/
No distinction between illicit opioids vs rx. ALL were coded and presented as rx. One of the most egregious things about this is the fact that deadly illicit fent, which was one of the main factors in most of the ODs, was and still is presented as an rx opioid.
All the policies centered around the CDCs incorrect information, which is why all we’ve seen for the past 10 yrs is HHS ( w/the AGs) mandating opioid reductions. They destroyed the MD/pt relationship and now we have 100,000 deaths & still rising. #TheyKnew #LitigationNarrative
